“The overall concept is excellent ”

written by Jerry Walker on 25/05/2006

Good Points
Graphics are excellent, however they often get in the way of seeing and reading the charts that you have to click on to make the game operate - to much white flashing background on white moving charts

Bad Points
Too many server, interface, communications, and operating problems over the past three weeks.

I have a new (in the past 3 months) emachines Lap Top - AMD processor - 15 1/4" screen - 60 gig hard drive - massive graphics card (a huge Lap Top). I have no problems with any other game - net work connection- and since I added Roadrunner wireless before I entered the game- all other net connections are immediate.

The company seems to be having significant problems with basic service, there is no communications, no quality control, and has had one problem after another. There is no customer service and no one to talk to. You send e.mails through the games petition system and no one responds.

They have had you load three different patches, their servers have failed at least 8 times, the game has frozen up at least at least six times in past three weeks. This obviously happens at critical moments of peak use.

General Comments
The overall concept is excellent



However, EVE Online is not working. From the point I signed on and got the game up and running I had one week that the game was working properly. Then the company had various up-grades? Patches - sever connections, new compter,and more patches.

Each time sever failer, screens freezing up, right and left clicks that don't work, glitches in programs, default changes inside the game that were not disclosed - were happing more frequently. I lost three ships due to three seperate (different) problems that they were aware of and did not even inform anyone.



The company now has over 100,000 subcribers and it appears they couldn't care less about any problems that the "newbies" might be having. They just want more and don't have any time to inform you about complicated changes that are taking place until after the fact. I don't really blame them - they are more than likely making a fortune at this.



Last night, I lost the third ship and even the petition system that they use to reconcile and correct problems - had problems.



I was lightingbolt - member for 4-5 weeks
